any game on the sega genesis

This, it's why Segafags are always 2edgy4me.

Rich kids with intact, loving families had Nintendo consoles growing up. Children of divorced parents had Sega, and eventually moved onto Sony

how were you born if you don't have a dad?

They also did some board game RPG thing that was actually surprisingly decent, and a street ball/basketball game that was OK. IIRC I think they also did Kabuki Quantum Fighter on NES.

Genuinely my favorite dev on SNES and almost inarguably THE most underrated developer EVER.

Exact did one of the best 3D games on the Sharp X68K computer, Geograph Seal.
On PS1 they did Jumping Flash, which is often cited as one of the first 3D platformer games, predating Super Mario 64, as well as the sequel Jumping Flash 2 in 1996, the next year they did Ghost in the Shell also for PS1, a very unique game that mixes homing-missile shooting and walking on walls and ceiling.
These guys got some really great ideas in terms of 3D games, but they dissolved after GITS. Different memebers went on to work on different projects within Sony Computer Entertainment, one of them did Robbit Mon Dieu (basically Jumping Flash 3, except it wasn't as good as the first 2 games).

Next up we've got Border Down. Don't know why I went for the lazy "A_ _" initials for my personal best, but there you go.

Score: 21,886,767

This is on a Dreamcast, arcade mode, standard everything as far as options/variables go.

As an aside, the initial screen music is comfy af: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_IJ3gIVZHw

Doing Thunder Force 4 next. The Genesis cart doesn't actually save high scores when you power down the system, so this screenshot is from the Saturn version. Even then this might not be my absolute best since my Saturn lacked a battery for a good portion of the time I was playing the game heavily, but at least the one time I did play it after I got the battery it was an All Clear so its probably close to my best.

Since its the Saturn version, its also a little harder because there's no slowdown. Again, all stock as far as options go - just powered on the game and pressed start.

Score: 1,402,760

This is another one with really chill initial entering music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuZ9EhSA6xk

Last up for now is Salamander.

I've beaten the NES version of Life Force a few times, but I dont have my NES hooked up and I assume it probably doesn't save high scores anyway, so here is the Saturn port of Salamander. Haven't beaten this bastard yet, but its not for lack of trying. In my high score run, I got to the last hori level.

Standard settings - 1 credit, 3 lives, whatever the stock difficulty is.

Score: 537,900

I might try to dredge up my other Gradius high scores, they aren't anything to brag about but I'm not claiming to be an expert or anything.

in terms of legacy and how popular it was at the time? FF7. in terms of gameplay? nothing. Alundra is a zelda clone but is more like the 2D ones. no ps1 games did 3D the way mario/zelda did really.

I do prefer the psx library now but n64 was great too

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain

That depends on what you mean by "equivalent."

that's actually pretty funny desu

The hole is a bit too big though, and the interior looks ike something out of Life Force or X-Multiply.

Why is she so wet

I'm not sure why you'd want to pick UE or Goldsource over one of the limit increasing ports for id tech 2. Something like Arcane Dimensions is impossible in goldsource.

>endanger my laser as little
Bull unless someones comes with proof (that's isn't in word alone)

anyway, you really have 2 choices
1. modchip it
2. use Pseudosaturn Kai

>>4012102
three options, in order of desirability:
>rhea/phoebe (expensive, very hard-to-get due to moderately high demand for such a low production product)
replaces the disc drive completely with an SD slot
>modchip
directly boots burned games, leaves the cart slot open
>pseudosaturn (cheapest, easiest, doesn't work with a small handful of games)
replaces the firmware on an Action Replay, boots burned games

>>4012170
>>4012178
Jeez, even piracy of the Saturn is expensive. Thanks for the suggestions- I may be able to afford Pseudosaturn.

What's the state of Saturn emulation these days? I have a nice CRT VGA monitor to minimise lag but are there any glaring flaws I should be aware of?

As a kid playing World Heroes I never put 2+2 together that Brocken was a Nazi.

Right? Super Mario Galaxy is so much better. They should have made the camera more like the one in Super Mario Galaxy.
Also the graphics are so bad! IT should look more like GTAV! And you should be able to shoot hookers.
I can't believe Nintendo made this gay kiddy game instead of a badass awesome game.
Also, why doesn't it have motion controls? Nintendo really dropped the ball.

>>4010963
SMG is so much better though

Shut up.

GG was the comfiest to play in bed, by far. Even a good external light for the Gameboy was generally not very pleasant to deal with.

By modern standards the GG's screen is pretty ugly but in the 90s there wasn't anything better to compare it to.

>Is it better to buy seasons or just individual tables?
Depends on which tables you like. You should download the free versions and decide what you really like, then do the math to figure out the savings. I will advise against buying the PRO versions, as the added cost isn't worth the little bit of extras you get.

Favorite table is Creature from the Black Lagoon, by the way.

>>3922880
I bought the first two seasons and then I bought Fish Tales and The Addams Family.

I like lots of the tables: Creature from the Black Lagoon, Tales of the Arabian Nights, Medieval Madness, Monster Bash, Elvira and the Party Monsters, Scared Stiff, Attack from Mars, Cactus Canyon, Theatre of Magic, Champion Pub, and Cue Ball Wizard. I am not a big fan of the really old ones. I bought Fish Tales and Addams Family because of nostalgia since I played them a bit when I was a kid.

Have quite a few favorites from this: Addams Family, Black Knight 2000, Twilight Zone, Scared Stiff, Black Rose, Judge Dredd, Centaur, Cirqus Voltaire

Love the theming of Star Trek TNG, but I can never aim for shit on that board.
